Equine enthusiasts, trot your cavalry along to Camping du Perche Bellemois for horsey times of all types. The site is in France's old Perche region, famed for its mighty shire horse the Percheron, probably the best known French breed around the world. It's a mere half kilometre from this Lower Normandy and Orne department base to bag traditional carriage rides around this peaceful and scenic countryside – pulled by a pair of Percheron horses on a guided tour and part of a range of horsey activities in the surrounding Perche Regional Natural Park. Other outdoor activities are abundant once you've exhausted the equestrian options, as Camping du Perche Bellemois is but a couple of minutes' drive from the pretty town of Bellême, the historic capital of the Perche region and a starting point for treks and hikes among its hills, valleys, fields and forests. Much more of the same is easily accessed among Bellême forest just outside town, which has several well-marked trails for hiking and mountain biking as well as ponds for fishing. You may at this point be rather relieved to learn that less active options are abundant very close by too. The site has direct access to a public swimming pool (for an additional fee unless you book seven nights at the site, in which case the site will cover the cost; swimsuits are compulsory and swimming shorts are banned). You'll also be a few minutes' walk from Bellême's other leisure facilities including a playground, tennis court, miniature golf and swish 18-hole golf course. There's a play area on site, and picnic tables await your alfresco eats. A lake is 500 metres away for leisurely days lounging on its bank.

Phillip D. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Power optional grass tent, caravan or trailer tent site

Liked: Proximity to Belleme Accessible toilet & shower (with detachable head) as well as 2 men’s and 2 women’s showers (non detachable though) Free use of town outdoor pool (only if staying for more than a week) and volleyball, basketball and pétanque courts (need to bring own ball/s) Enough facilities including washing machine and drier Small site so short walk to facilities

Disliked: Need to remember to bring own toilet roll and soap (only cold water is supplied) Some pitches are smaller than advertised - the ones separated by hedges are on a hill so tents tend to be in the main area which aren’t big, so when busy, you are very close to others - we only just managed to get our 6 man tent (with porch), car and table/chairs on with no extra space The playpark next door isn’t great (bits broken, not enough to keep our 4year old entertained) but this is no fault of the campsite Pitches next to the playground may have to listen to a basketball bouncing til late

Power optional concrete and grass motorhome site

Liked: Niets

Disliked: De plek was in een ronding en heel erg schuin aflopend en het sanitair oud en versleten. Er was ook geen warm water om af te wassen en douchen hebben we niet eens gedaan zo slecht als het was

From the manager: Hallo, het spijt ons voor uw slechte ervaring op onze camping! We hadden een probleem met de boiler in het eerste deel van de toiletten en deze moest gesloten worden, behalve dat de loodgieter de deuren niet op slot deed voordat hij vertrok en dat hadden we niet gezien! In het sanitairgebouw na de toiletten was alles in orde!! jammer dat je het niet kwam melden, dan hadden we je doorverwezen.. Ik kijk ernaar uit u weer te mogen verwelkomen in betere omstandigheden, zoals vaak benadrukt in de verschillende opmerkingen, onze toiletten zijn schoon en er is warm water. met vriendelijke groeten,

Beautiful campsite, catering for all and reasonably priced

Phoebe B. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Power optional grass tent, caravan or trailer tent site

Liked: The pitches were secluded enough to make you feel like they were private and big enough to share with another small group if needed without feeling like you were on top of each other. Lovely shade, a short distance to the town via footpaths out of the campsite. The option to use the pool, friendly on arrival. Very reasonably priced. Could easily have stayed a few more days.

Disliked: No toilet roll in the toilets and only 1 shower was open for women.

Local attractions

You're well sorted for active and more relaxed options within a short trot of the site: ask the friendly team about accessing those splendid Percheron horse carriage rides, or take your tees, clubs and golfing skills to the Bellême Saint Martin Golf Club, a couple of hundred metres away. There's direct access to the Bellême pool from the site, as well as to the town skate park if you have wheelie-based teens on holiday with you rather than smaller sorts. You'll also be conveniently close to Bellême forest, to tackle hiking trails from a measly four to a boastful 19.5 kilometres, and to three heady mountain bike trails, running either through the forest or the natural park. Source info on the park and its horses at the Écomusée du Perche about 15 minutes' drive away, which has regular family and kids' activities among its exhibitions and displays on rural life and traditions of the 19th and 20th centuries. A festival day celebrating  the Percheron horse is held every year at the museum in August.
